a 20 year old drowns in a gouille

A young man drowned in a pit in Réchy on Sunday around 3:30 pm. The searches made it possible to find him. Despite an attempt at resuscitation, the man, a 20-year-old Portuguese resident in Valais, died.

He was swimming when suddenly he disappeared from the surface of the water. His friend, who was on the bank, sounded the alert.

Many resources have been committed on site. The patrols of the cantonal police and the regional police force of the Cities of the Center arrived on the spot and immediately jumped into the water. Two Air-Glaciers / Maison FXB du Sauvetage helicopters, two divers, the men of the Sierre CSI with a boat, the Vallon CSP, an ambulance and the SMUR doctor quickly converged on the spot.

Shortly before 5:00 p.m., the divers discovered the missing person. Resuscitation was performed immediately, to no avail.

The prosecution has opened an investigation.
